Charles Haddon Spurgeon August 4, 2000 Feast of John Vianney, Curè d'Ars, 1859   Prayer is not a way of making use of God; prayer is a way of offering ourselves to God in order that He should be able to make use of us. It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.   ... William Barclay, The Plain Man's Book of Prayers, Introduction  August 5, 2000 Feast of Oswald, King of Northumbria, Martyr, 642   Meanwhile, little people like you and me, if our prayers are sometimes granted, beyond all hope and probability, had better not draw hasty conclusions to our own advantage. If we were stronger, we might be less tenderly treated. If we were braver, we might be sent, with far less help, to defend far more desperate posts in the great battle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8539</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The everyday kindness of the back roads more than makes up for the acts of greed in the headlines. . ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23795]]></link><description><![CDATA[The everyday kindness of the back roads more than makes up for the acts of greed in the headlines. . -Charles Kuralt.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23795</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Money — the root of all evil....
